Ride On Josephine

(album: George Thorogood And The Destroyers - 1977)

Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, child ya' got a running machine
Baby baby ride on Josephine, baby ride on

Well now Josephine driving a hotrod Ford
She got twin carburators, gonna burn up the road
Twin exhausts kicking out the rear
Some a'that'll really take away from here

Ride on Josephine, baby ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, child ya' got a running machine
Baby baby ride on Josephine, baby ride on

Well now Josephine's engine, said it started run hot
She tried to trade it in down the used car lot
The man couldn't believe his natural eyes
When she pulled it up into his drive

Ride on Josephine, baby ride on
Ride on Josephine, baby ride on
Ride on Josephine, girl ya' got a running machine
Baby baby ride on Josephine, baby ride on

Josephine...your tank is leaking baby
I think ya' better slow down, ride with me
Ya' say what?
Ya' ask me to hush up and mind my own business?
Uh...baby you are my business
You good business baby
I just looooove good business
Ya' say what?
Ya' ask me what kind of car am I drivin'?
Well, Uh...

I'm driving a '48 Cadillac with thunderbird wings
I'm telling ya' baby it's a running thing
I could reach a groove a'baby .. get a gear
I think I could take it a'right outta here

Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, ride on
Ride on Josephine, child ya' got a running machine
Baby baby ride on Josephine, baby ride on
